…it’s not AI.

Funny. :)

Just ran across a great paper written by Eve Phillips documenting a history of artificial intelligence. Well worth a read. The title made me smile because my first job in IT was writing an expert system and it most certainly didn’t work. Must have been AI then. ;)

The above paper reference came from Dan Weinreb’s post Why Did Symbolics Fail?

If you ever want to start a company, you can learn a lot from reading “war stories” like the ones herein.

Alleluia to that, brother…or even if you just want to be a better engineer.
